Local structure of bulk and nanocrystalline Chromium
We plan to study the coupling between magnetic properties and local structure of polycrystalline and nanocrystalline chromium. Chromium undergoes a magnetic ordering transition... -
High-pressure, high-temperature studies of energetic materials - RDX and HMX
One of the aims of this proposal is to quench to ambient pressure a metastable form of the widely used secondary explosive RDX. This is formed above ~4.5 GPa and 448 K but is... -
QENS on Halide Stabilized LiBH4
LiBH4, is an ionic solid, consisting of Li+ and BH4- ions. It undergoes a structural phase transition at 383K. Within the HT phase, the BH4-units undergo rapid re-orientations,... -

Dynamics of a New and High Performance Proton Conductor ZnADP.3H2O
We propose to measure the dynamics in ZnADP¿3H2O, a new and high performance material that exhibits proton conductivity as high as Nafion membranes, which is the best commercial... -
Water dynamics in dental zinc cement by quasi-elastic neutron scattering
Zinc phosphate cements (ZPCs) are used in dentistry. Cement formulation (liquid+solid) is largely empirical because of lack of information on the exact chemical nature of the... -
Magnetic Excitations of Isolated and Pairs of Co Ions and in MgO
The magnetic excitations will be studied in a powdered sample of 3% CoO in 97% MgO in order to to study the excitations of isolated Co ions and of isolated pairs of Co ions.... -
